Home Office: Celebrating on off holiday days leaves the holiday a bit empty
It is Thanksgiving and I have simply sat around most of the day. A day off in the middle of the week is not what I am used to and I have had a hard time deciding what to do next.
It would be an understatement if I said that I have a lot do. It is too bad that I am not taking advantage of having the time to do it. Tomorrow I will look back and think – I am so mad at myself, I should have gotten some of this work caught up while I had the chance”.
My Thanksgiving Day meal happened two weeks ago. You see my family can’t celebrate a holiday on a holiday. We have to jump the gun because there is always something to be done on the actual day. Unfortunately the timing is always off for me.
As a self-employed person with employees my life tends to navigate around the schedules of my customers. To celebrate early causes me to make special arrangements and then when everyone else is celebrating I am sitting here stressing over what I should be doing.
Anyway, I need to quit complaining and get down to business. I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving Day. Talk to you again on the other side.
